Buffy. When I saw you stop the world from, you know, ending, I just assumed that was a big week for you. Turns out I suddenly find myself needing to know the plural of 'apocalypse.'

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
If you contributed to the Nilly Fund, you should have received an email from me.
There were two people who sent a check, and a money order, respectively, but I have no email addie for you. If this means you, please drop me an e at Allyson000 at aol dot com.
Erinaceous, your email bounced.
If I don't hear from you that have received emails, I will assume all is well.
I will be sending individual emails with your transaction IDs, but not tonight, for I am so very sleepy.
Everyone that asked for an itinerary shall have one.

This is a good year for Perseids, for two reasons, explains Bill Cooke of the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center. First, the Moon is new in mid-August; moonlight won't spoil the show. Second, in addition to the usual shower on August 12th, there might be an extra surge of meteors on August 11th caused by a filament of dust newly drifting across Earth's orbit. ... If predictions are correct, Earth will plow through the filament on Wednesday, August 11th at 2100 UT (5 p.m. EDT). This will produce a surge of mostly-faint meteors over Europe and Asia. Observers might see "as many as 200 meteors per hour," says Cooke, who recommends getting away from city lights to watch the flurry. ... Later that night, observers in North America can see the "traditional Perseid peak" caused by the older dust from Swift-Tuttle. "Expect 40 to 60 meteors per hour, some of them bright," says Cooke.
Happy viewing! (Try to not have a major black-out this year, East Coast)

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
Today in history:
1944 - IBM dedicated the first program-controlled calculator, the Automatic Sequence Controlled Calculator (known best as the Harvard Mark I).

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Thanks Are Due!
Not going to write down the full list of people, since there are so many of them I'd overload the board, and anyway, I haven't got permission to list names - but for every single one of you who came to play, with money or love or both, on erika's birthday prezzie?
Mission accomplished. Looks like erika and Nilly get to meet in LA after all.

I have edited together and posted Nilly's new Firefly ep "Objects In Space" review and quotage. It resides at the Nilly Site that Gus set up on Shriftweb.
As of this point, the content is all there. Some tweakage may occur for some small formatting inconsistancies, especially in the quotes areas.

Every time I come by I have to run off for a phone call or some stupid crisis before I get to really say hello to everyone. So hello. I lost my address book during the sad demise of my last laptop, so I don't have anyone's email addresses anymore. I'd really appreciate it if you all could email me at hneal at marksmen dot com so I could add you back to my address book. I'm not here much, but Sumi keeps me up to date on the important things through email, and I'd like to be able to email you guys occasionally.
Hope you are all well. Email me!
